I hear the thunder, Crash Crash Crash, Perfect ending, to a day full of sun. And I see the lightning, Flash, Flash, Flash, This storm, has just barely begun. So what should I do, Rest in shelter, Stay dry? But then what if I miss all the fun? It's been weeks of this unpredictable crazy, Yet I know it's just only begun. I never learned to swim, but I wish I knew now, Maybe I wouldn't be fearful of rain? But it's not fear of water that brings on the fear, It's the prospect of drowning, before winning the game. See the storm hurls the pieces, all over the board... One piece left, One piece up, One piece down. But the wind I can stand, It's the chance I can't bare, Will I win, Will I draw, Will I drown? There's no real way of knowing, If I'll weather the storm. But I just can't stand drowning, before being reborn.

Stormy weather
I hear the thunder, Crash Crash Crash, Perfect ending, to a day full of sun. And I see the lightning, Flash, Flash, Flash, This storm, has just barely begun. So what should I do, Rest in shelter, Stay dry? But then what if I miss all the fun? It's been weeks of this unpredictable crazy, Yet I know it's just only begun. I never learned to swim, but I wish I knew now, Maybe I wouldn't be fearful of rain? But it's not fear of water that brings on the fear, It's the prospect of drowning, before winning the game. See the storm hurls the pieces, all over the board... One piece left, One piece up, One piece down. But the wind I can stand, It's the chance I can't bare, Will I win, Will I draw, Will I drown? There's no real way of knowing, If I'll weather the storm. But I just can't stand drowning, before being reborn.
My reaction to thunder in unpredictable times.
